Tonights fishing report

[Leonard]

Since I didnt post a report the last time I went.. it was a slow night for me... about 2 hours of fishing with DuckyDoty and caught none.. he left I went to chute 1 and caught 2.. then went home this I believe was the night of the last TU meeting..2/7/06....

Now on with tonights report..

4 units on when I got there.. Mr.Ducky and DuckyDoty were already there..

sometime after 9pm there shut it down to 2 units

I took the 7wt tonight to fish a sink tip (its going to take awhile to get use to that)..

I fished the break in chute 1.. where the water runs.. and the chute meets it in the lake

started with some big stuff.. leeches,jellybeans, and a deceiver... 2 hit on the jelly bean.. but no fish to hand

went to the car and got the 5wt... after about 4-5 flies.. I found it.. a brown pine squirrel.. caught 3 (1 being about 16in) very fat fish!!

after about a hour and half.. time for coffee (the GOOD stuff!)

when I returned I had to grab a mink from the van (yes I did the stripping thing tonight).. make fun of it if you want to.. but with 6 fish Im the one laughing

well by now the ducks have flew the coop.. guess they got cold or it was to windy for them ..hehehe

well before I left I put on a Mohawk sculpin.. 3 more fish..

I had 2 really big fish hooked.. so tomorrow night I know what I'll be using

I fished between 8:30 and stayed to just before 12:30

so some where around a dozen fish..

If you weren't catching fish, it wouldn't be fun to make fun of your slow strip mink....

Good report... You are tougher than the ducks... that's impressive!...

Sorry I missed you guys. I was down at the dam about 7:00 and talked to a couple of guys from Kansas. They were having limited success on white jigs.

I couldn't believe that the water had rose another foot since the afternoon.

It was rolling all day friday but the fishing got hot a couple of times at outlet #1. I think they were flushing some small rainbows and debree from one of the pools above.
